I thought Tippett probably got the better of Jacobs in the ruck, which is saying something, since Jacobs is one of the best in the league. I think Tippo is our number 1 ruckman for the balance of this year, unless Pyke comes good somehow or Naismith has a meteoric rise into the seniors. Reid can be the backup. He's okay in the ruck and he's like another midfielder when he's there.
